How Does a Remote
Control Blind System Work?
By Josienita Borlongan, eHow

Battery-Operated
Blinds
Remote-controlled blinds operate on batteries. The blinds
have a receiver made of a motorized tubular design located at the top panel or
head rail of the blinds. Pointing the remote control to the infrared sensor of
the receiver will operate the window blinds. You can move the blind up and down
and close and open the blinds using the control buttons. Some remotes can use
regular double A (AA) or triple A (AAA) batteries; however, the receiver may
use a long-lasting battery such as a D battery. It is better to use a
longer-lasting battery on the receiver so that you do not have to replace the
battery often, especially if the height of the blinds is too high. You might
pay more up front; however, you save money in
the long run by fewer battery changes.
Remote Control Operation
The blind operates via remote control by
pointing the transmitter portion of the remote, usually at the front, toward
the direction of the top of the blinds. The remote control can reach up to a
maximum of 40 to 50 feet of distance. You can press the control to open and
close the slats and move it them different angles to control the lights. You
can also control the blinds by rolling them up or down. Some remote controls
can handle up to five blinds at the same time, especially if the blinds are on
the same row or columns in the same room. It is advisable to get a separate
remote control for each room. It also helps prevent misplacing the remote.
Advantages of Using
Remote-Controlled Blinds
Remote-controlled blinds are useful in controlling the
amount of light that you want in your home.
Higher windows are no longer a problem to cover because of the remote control's
ability to do the work without the need to climb tall ladders. In odd areas
such as a sunroof located in bathrooms, kitchens and sun rooms, you can use
remote-controlled blinds to operate the blinds from a distance.
Types of
Remote-Controlled Window Blinds
Remote-controlled window blinds come
in regular-sized 2-inch blinds, miniblinds, silhouette and Levolor blinds. You
can opt for a multidirectional window blinds. There are even blinds that can
split into two sections or that roll in the middle. You can also choose to have
vertical or horizontal blinds. There are also certain motorized blinds that are
fan-shaped or arched. The odder the window shapes, the more expensive due to
the difficulty in creating them and locating the right spot for the control
receiver. You can connect the blinds to a sun senor, thermostat or timer to
make adjustments more automated.
